DAY 1 – ARRIVAL (D)
We depart the airport in Toulouse and travel south towards the
Spanish border. Our destination is Catalonia, a region that was once
independent and today still retains its distinctive culture and
language. Time to unpack and explore our new surroundings before a great
welcome dinner.
DAY 2 – BESALU (BD)
Today we visit the medieval town of Besalu, dating back to the 10th
century. Renowned for its great architectural value, the town’s
buildings and the old bridge make up one of the most notable monumental
legacies of the medieval period in Catalonia.
DAY 3 – GIRONA (BD)
The lovely city of Girona is our destination today. A medieval city
built along the banks of the Onyar River, with narrow streets and
wonderful historic buildings including the magnificent Gothic Cathedral.
Walk along the ancient wall that runs around the edge of the old
quarter, visit the Arab Baths or simply enjoy a coffee or a glass of
wine in one of the many outdoor cafes.
DAY 4 – FIGUERES – SALVADOR DALI
(BD)
We visit the small town of Figueres, the
birthplace of the surrealist Salvador Dali and now home to the Dali
Museum. The spectacular museum is the main attraction in the town and
not to be missed. Later we take a drive to L’Escala, a lovely little
unspoiled town on the coast.
DAY 5 – CADAQUES & COSTA BRAVA
(BD)
Today we will take a scenic drive along the
sparkling Costa Brava, one of the most beautiful areas in Catalonia. We
will take time to stop in some of the most scenic places along this
rocky coastline with its small inlet beaches and fishing villages with
white-washed houses. A highlight will be a visit to the picturesque
resort town of Cadaques where Dali had his home and workshop just a
short distance from the town.
DAY 6 – DEPARTURE (B)
After breakfast your tour comes to an end and you will be transferred to
the train station in Figueres where we say our farewells.
